Taking these piano lessons has been very beneficial in many ways. It helps activate the brain cells, keep the fingers limber and relaxing. Amy is very patient and knowledgeable when teaching us. I definitely would pursue taking classes with Amy if interested as she works at each individual's capabilities.

Amy is a wonderful and patient instructor. The studio and setting are excellent for adult learning, allowing everyone to learn at their own pace – from beginner to those who already have piano skills. I was surprised with the progress I was able to make in such a short time, especially since I had no prior music or piano experience.

I began lessons in September and have truly enjoyed the experience. My piano skills are definitely improving, but so is my general knowledge of music theory as well. Amy really knows her stuff, and she is also a gifted teacher. It's a winning combination, someone who can "do" and also teach! I was very fortunate to have found Amy and highly recommend.

My wife and I have started piano lessons a few times over the years. This is amazing!!! We have advanced further in a few months then a couple of years worth of lessons previously.

I totally recommend Piano With Amy for keeping your eye-hand coordination intact. Plus the instructor is awesome.

Piano With Amy has been an amazing experience! Amy is an awesome teacher and she helps us focus on what we are interested in playing! She helped me learn some Blues and we actually played a duet at the local blues jam. Thanks Amy for helping me check one off the bucket list!!

I love taking lessons at Piano With Amy! I took piano lessons starting at 5 years old. I stopped taking lessons at around 13. I just didn’t practice like I should have and always regretted it as an adult. After retiring early and going through a serious illness, I wanted to take piano lessons. I found Amy at Piano for Amy. Amy teaches in groups and private lessons. I belong to a group class, which is so cool! We learn at our own pace from the same book — no pressure.

Amy is perfect for the senior that wishes to learn to play the piano. She is very patient and obviously experienced. She works with each student at their own pace. She strives to have each student improve their skills weekly. I highly recommend Amy at Piano for Amy.

I am so grateful that I stumbled upon this piano studio. Adult lessons at Piano With Amy allows me to work at my own pace and work on my own style of music. It offers a very easy approach to learning how to play piano. Amy provides all of the tools necessary and fosters an environment of success and encouragement. Highly recommend!

Beginning to play piano again has been a wonderful experience. I have met wonderful people who share my interest in music. Amy makes the experience non stressful and fun. We each progress at our own pace with much encouragement from our group. I have truly enjoyed this wonderful experience.

I really enjoy learning to play piano at Piano for Amy. I am finally achieving a goal that I’ve had for a long time! The instruction is personalized to meet your needs while the group setting provides an atmosphere that is enjoyable. Amy’s expertise is incredible. I leave each class having learned something new!

I highly recommend Piano With Amy Studio. I have been a student for 1 year, relearning basics from childhood lessons and learning new piano techniques to advance my playing ability. I am in a group class - people progress at individual speeds and we support each other’s progress in a relaxed atmosphere. I totally enjoy these classes- it’s never too late to learn!

As I was reading the local newspaper several years ago, I read an article highlighting a local piano teacher who taught adult piano lessons, I saved it. Several weeks passed and I was still thinking about that article, so I made the call to Amy and began taking in person lessons. In Amy’s kind and patient ways, I have learned more about myself. I have learned that it takes more patience as a senior citizen to learn to play the piano and I do need to follow the foundational steps. Amy knows my personality, the way I like to learn, and my priorities and she knows how to teach me as a unique individual. Today, I take only online lessons and have learned that recitals are fun. Amy and her assistant have other remarkable characteristics. They are constantly improving their processes for online teaching, staying abreast of new technology and providing top notch responsiveness to students. For those who are deciding whether to take piano lessons online, please call Amy.

Piano with Amy has been a great experience so far. I am taking online lessons with Amy, and I find that the online experience provides the same valuable instruction as if we were in-person. I find Amy’s approach to be very helpful. Not only does she provide 1:1 instruction, but she has many resources in her Google classroom (videos, instructional materials, demos) that allow you to practice independently when you are not in class. Overall, this has been a fun and rewarding experience. I highly recommend Piano with Amy!

I discovered Amy’s piano for adults surfing the Internet. I called Amy on a Saturday morning thinking I would get a call on Monday. Amy returned my call shortly after I called. We talked quite awhile about my experiences with learning to play the piano as an adult. And to my delight she taught adults as a group of 6 in her studio . She is very committed to helping us/me to getting to where we/I want to be and to help us to achieve our goals. I loved being in the studio. I am an individual who requires the personal interaction. She allows us to choose the piece we are interested in and she is great with knowing our limitations and knowing when to encourage us to take on a more challenging composition. She is very patient , pleasant and understanding. Amy has expanded her music class to virtual for individuals who cannot make the trip to southern Maryland. So now her adult students can benefit the best of two worlds- virtual or in person. For me group lessons are less stressful and more relaxed.

"I have been taking piano lessons with Amy for almost 3 years I was a complete beginner. I started classes in person but with COVID and with everything shut down Amy began Zoom classes. While this is not ideal I have continued to attend and Amy does a wonderful job keeping each of us working at a comfortable pace. It is almost private lessons as she works individually with each person. This experience is really unique because each person’s level is different and yet I never feel intimidated by the others in our “class”. Amy also offers us workshops in the summer. Last year we had one on ear training and music theory. I have thoroughly enjoyed my class time and am hopeful that I will continue for many years"

Online lessons with Amy have been a perfect fit for my busy schedule. Getting to a lesson has never been more convenient, and I find it helpful to review the lesson video recording later. Amy's lessons are always fun and engaging. She's a most patient and fantastic listener whos been able to provide the resources and support to help me reach my musical goals. Thanks Amy!

Piano with Amy is a respectable and enjoyable experience. I have attended both in-person and online lessons. Amy's approach is tailored to your goals and expectations. She takes your personal music preferences into account early so you can begin playing what you like. As a beginner, I have found the lesson plans to be progressive and critical to learning the fundamentals of the piano. I enjoy the experience of improving my playing while realigning my goals as I improve. Her studio is well equipped to meet the needs of all musical tastes, styles, and technological needs. Additionally, she offers lesson material outside of the scheduled lessons and this is a true bargain.

I am a middle-aged (64) beginner taking piano online with Amy. I took piano as a child but the teacher decided I was so hopeless and told my parents to save their money. So I definitely had trepidation about taking it up at my age. The experience with Amy has been totally enjoyable. She manages to make the online experience feel like an in person lesson. She is always encouraging even when she is correcting technique or errors. I am playing simple music with both hands and excited to see my own progress. The classes are small and everyone is encouraging and supportive no matter their level.

I enjoyed taking piano lessons at Amy's studio. The online format was a good fit for me and a good way to collaborate and learn from other students. Amy's method of teaching helped reinforce basic skills that I could use no matter the piece I was working on and gave me confidence to improve. She was continually encouraging and engaging with her students.

I have taken online private lessons with Amy focusing on classical music and jazz improvisation. While emphasizing the positive in her students' playing Amy also focuses in methods to strengthen areas needing additional work. She adapts easily to varied learning styles among her students. In the summer she holds group classes on various topics i.e. theory, popular music, new apps. During the year she has also held masterclasses with outstanding music educators. Amy goes the extra mile for her students alerting them to new piano resources both printed music and other piano related technology resources through her use of Google classroom.
